Ian St. Laurent is back with Volume 4 of the wonderfully weird WISL mix series. This one is entitled “The Dracula Experience” and is amazingly creepy and totally awesome. WISL is such an awesome mix of oddities. The back and forth of the announcers is hilarious. This is definitely one of my favorite mix series.

Friday, August 14th– DJ Lowbudget w/ SMALLERTRONIX. Lowbudget is one half of the legendary Hollertronix crew and this might be the coolest residency in the city. Free drinks 10-11, first come first serve, the room is small and dripping with flavor, but it can’t hold everyone.

Saturday—Sammy Slice with LIP SERVICE. Sammy Slice is that dude. He is the guy behind Thursdays at Silk City and he is a beast. This & every Saturday w/ suprise special guests. Again, free drinks 10-11.

Sunday—Ian St Laurent, Greg Foreman & Wolffang present Night Train. The party boys from Turnaround VS Immediate are keeping it really real, with funk, soul & motorcycle repair music every Sunday night. This is an epic in the making, be here for the beginning. And yes, of course, we cap the weekend off with the last night of free drinks 10-11.

Thats right, Low B is back and has his own residency. Welcome back Low Beezy!  By the way, they now accept credit cards, no need to worry about having only cash any more.
